An exceedingly clean, masculine cologne that charmingly sparkles with citrus, geranium and basil. Fresh and classic in equal measure. Effervescent. The refinement is flagrant. Lavender, neroli and lily of the valley are meticulously elegant. Oakmoss and sandalwood anchor it as a fragrance for all times.

A bespoke cologne originally made for Sir Percy Croft of the port dynasty - and inspired by the Douro river that escapes from the altitudes, into the sea in Porto. Exhilarating indeed.

Douro by Penhaligon's: Created in 1911, it was originally called Douro Eau de Portugal. This elegant cologne was named after one of the most important port producing regions in Portugal; the Douro Valley.
